I would have been interested in going for all 3 days but not at $85 (+booking fees) per for the section I had selected without knowing the names of some of the riders who will be riding. It's akin to advertising a concert or theatre play without telling you who is going to appear. Likely now I will at best, only go for the one day but there also doesn't appear to be any schedule as yet. Does anyone know when the event schedule is published or who I can contact?

What, the un-reserved seats are $15 a day? :?

Have I been looking at another planet? Will re-check :D

Re-checked. http://premier.ticketek.com.au/events/S ... 41/tickets

Can you show me where the $15 tickets are for Hisense? Are you referring to the Brisbane event (or the other 6 day event in Melbourne between 4-9 December 2018)?

Ah okay, my price is for Brissy. :wink: Oh and these are unreserved, I don't see the point in paying for the reserved seats, when they are no different to unreserved, because I would be very surprised to see it sell out. :idea:

Did you forget it was you who provided the original link to the Melbourne event? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Checked again and it would appear $50 for a seat in the far rear corner of Hisense is the cheapest available adult ticket for any of the days (including the mandatory booking fee) nor is there an option of buying a discounted ticket covering all 3 days. I too doubt Hisense will be sold-out because last December during the Austral, lots of empty spaces were noticeable and that's for a single day on a Saturday.

The link should have been for the whole 6 Day, which included Brisbane. :wink:

Caught up with DD last night, what a top bloke! :wink:

Bloody great racing was watched and the girls gave a great display of aggression in how they approached their rides, Especially Katie Archibald she was attacking everything. :shock:

The boys set a cracking pace throughout the races and Sam Welsford was a complete turn around in form from the Nationals last week. :?

Its a mutual admiration society here at the 6 day tonight with Foo on Patrol aka Gary. Racing is awesome as is meeting foo finally.
Katie Archibald is amazing ... rge womens racing is the highlight for me. They are soooo good. I just happened to be at the same cafe at southbank as half a dozen of the ladies and had a chat with Nettie Edmonson. So lucky.
The Dutch guys are sensational but i cant keep my eyes off kell obrien. Probably the best track rider ive ever seen, and yes ive been to Europe.
This is one hell of a show.
Love it.

Hope this is back again next year and the speeds that they were hitting throughout the races, was just insane, :shock: I can't even hit those in a sprint anymore. :lol:
